[Verse 1]
C Em
Who are you when the lights come up
F Gsus4 G6
When the music fades and the crowd goes down
C Em
Where did you land when the spinning stopped
F Gsus4 G6
Are you far away in another town
Am Em
You were young and the lights were bright
F C C/B
You went dancing in to the night
Am Em
You always said it would turn out alright
F G C
Suzanne will you tell me if you can
[Chorus 1]
G Dm F G
Suzanne is it everything you wanted
C G Dm F G
Suzanne Suzanne is it everything you dreamed it would be
C Em
You reached for the stars and touched the sky
F C C/B
You fell back down and you don’t know why
Am G F F/E F/D C
Suzanne you still shine bright to me
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
C Em
You are the first one on and the last one off
F C C/B
Who do you see when the mask comes off
Am Em
With your red wine teeth and your smokers cough
F C C/B
Suzanne I’m sure you’ve had enough
Am Em
But you never cared for what I had to say
F C C/B
Now you go sleeping all through the day
Am Em
Please don’t dream your life away
F C G C
Suzanne can you help me to understand
[Chorus 2]
G Dm F G
Suzanne is it everything you wanted
C G Dm F G
Suzanne Suzanne is it everything you dreamed it would be
C Em
For time takes everything she likes
F C C/B
And youth will leave like a thief in the night
Am G F F/E F/D C
Suzanne you still shine bright to me
[Interlude]
Em F C C/B
Am Em F G6 Gsus4 G G6
[Bridge]
Am Em
Now you’re old and the lights are dim
F C C/B
The band won’t play and the man won’t sing
Am Em
All the songs that he sang when you danced with him
F G C
Suzanne can I take you by the hand
[Chorus 3]
G Dm F G
Suzanne is it everything you wanted
C G Dm F G
Suzanne Suzanne is it everything you dreamed it would be
C Em
You never knew the rules to the game
F C C/B
Drawn in like a moth to the flame
Am Em
Suzanne it is a crying shame
F G C
That they’ll never know your name
